Read the sign next to the hut door. You will end up making all three potions.
Charcoal: get fire stones next to log on beach and branch, also on beach. Click on the cauldron so the doctor moves. Inside the hut right where he was standing is a little tan lump: this is your tools. Click on it and use the fire stones to light the candle and then burn the stick. Use the burned stick on the mortar and pestle to grind it up.
Akkus: tiny green plant to the left of the hut, in the background. Use the tools to grate it.
Egg: Pick up the shovel head at the bottom left of the screen, and take the pole from above the sign. Use the + to combine and click on the shore. The egg is buried in the upper right area, not quite to the corner. Use the tools to whisk the egg.
Get the bottle from the bottom of the palm tree, and add your ingredients to the cauldron. Use the bottle on the cauldron and then on the patient. Oops! He’s getting worse; on to the second potion.
Rummus: pull the plant from the bottom of the sign and grate it.
Coconut: use the shovel to knock it down; it’s above the hut in the background, and grate that as well.
Red flower: move the doctor so you can pull it from under the bench.
Assemble this potion and give it to the poor man.
Trimma: little plant at the bottom right of the hut; grate it up.
Banana: move the stone at the very bottom of the screen on the right; there’s a banana underneath; crush it.
Mushroom: On the very left of the screen between giant green banana leaves and a big rock. Grate it, make the potion, and send your victim off to meet his date.

Another Potion
First there’s some stuff to watch. Then more potions to make!
Grated bone: Click between the palm trees to return to Death Island. The bone is next to the well on the bottom right and it’s purple. Give it a grate.
Burned crow’s feather: The crow is also on Death Island; small and in the back of the scene. Click on it to pull a feather (it doesn’t run away). Use the lit candle in the tools to burn it.
Coconut paste: Kettineto can just reach the coconut (he’s taller); above the hut again, this time leftish. Grate it first, then whisk it to make paste.
Give the three ingredients to Calimbu.
Then there’s some stuff to watch, he does a silly dance, and now you’re in the underworld.

Underworld
First click on the large cross to get the story: to find Amber we need to learn the song of the dead from dead Fred.
Fred needs his stick. The stick is on the bottom right but the skull won’t let you take it unless there’s smoke coming out of his nose. There are fire stones on the far right and five leaves: one by the cross gravestone, one on the bottom left of the screen, one on the roof of the hut, one on the rock on the bottom right, and the last on on a branch of the right-hand tree, but the tree won’t let you take it. Click the crow several times and it will fly and knock the leaf onto the sign. Put the leaves in the skull ( I had to make Kettinetto walk away first by clicking somewhere else) and use the fire stones on the skull. now you can take the stick. Give the stick to the gravestone.
Click on the mausoleum a couple of times; it will tell you the show is canceled and to go away but eventually you get a lock to decode. It’s a row of crosses; they move and they can also be tusks. Use the scene as your clue: all the tusks and crosses and the angles they are at in the picture.
Click on the skull a few times; you will get ashes and you will sweat onto the rock. Click on the sweat spot to get it. Give the ashes to the right tree and the sweat to the left, then there will be a strange song and dance number.

Small tusk leaning left, small upright cross, large upright tusk, small cross leaning right, large cross leaning right, small cross leaning left, small tusk upright. It took a bit of fiddling for me to get it right.
